Han Chengchi, completely bewildered and cloaked in confusion, stood rooted to the spot. He furrowed his brow, tried hard to think, but couldn't figure out what he had done to upset Gu Enen. So, he took out his phone and called her, but there was no answer. He called a second time, only to be hung up on, and by the third attempt, the phone was switched off.

When Gu Lanshan got home, the housekeeper presented her a pair of slippers, placing them before her, and casually mentioned, "Mr. Sheng called, he won't be coming home for dinner tonight. There's a business dinner he has to attend at the company."
Gu Lanshan pursed her lips, the words that Su Jiaojiao had said not long ago at the tea restaurant quickly resurfaced in her mind, and she thought to herself how fitting they were.
"Tonight, I have a dinner to attend, Brother Sheng will be there too!"
"Ten Miles Shengshi is selecting a new spokesperson."
